Oxygène Val Thorens
About
Oxygène Ski & Snowboard School in Val Thorens is the highest resort in Europe, opening each year from 23 November until 2 May. Students enjoy a sprawling 150 km of pistes across 84 runs, with early season access courtesy of Val Thorens’ 2 300 m altitude. The school offers a full spectrum of lessons—from beginner‑friendly group classes for children, teens and adults, to private coaching and on‑snow instruction in both French and English. Specialized programs such as adaptive skiing, off‑piste guiding, ski touring and cross‑country skiing allow every skier to find the right challenge. Located just off the foot of the Tourotel accommodation front, near the Le Fahrenheit hotel, the meeting point is easily identifiable by Oxygène flags and bright orange and blue uniforms.
